A Thousand Years of Long Life

千秋万歳 (senshuubanzai)

The four-character idiom 千秋万歳 meaning "A Thousand Years of Long Life" is composed of the words千秋 (read senshuu) meaning "thousand years, a thousand autumns" and 万歳 (read banzai) meaning "long life and prosperity"

千秋万歳 is a well-wish for a long and full life and is often given as a retirement gift.
